Is OLED display worth it? I've heard it makes a difference but don't know if it's really worth that much extra money. I would appreciate input from current OLED users.

OLED is worth it if you care about image quality and smooth motion. You get perfect blacks, insane contrast, vibrant colors, near-instant response times, and very low input lag — games look and feel noticeably better. Downsides are higher price, possible burn-in with lots of static HUDs, and lower brightness than some LCDs in bright rooms.
Buy OLED if: you want the best visuals/immersion and play story or cinematic games.
Skip OLED if: you’re on a budget, game in a very bright room, or play long sessions with static UI (MMOs, RTS, etc.).
Not mandatory — but definitely premium.

I've heard the difference is like between high and ultra settings. But yeah I'm worried about the burn-ins, although I've heard that in newer displays that is not happening often.
if you can afford it, yes
Play on your phone screen.
It is too small...
I'm saving for it
if you will have to save up money for a long time just so you can afford OLED monitor then don't, just ger 144Hz IPS. OLED is for dudes who have enough money so OLED monitor for them is like going out to buy burger in fast food. OLED is great, just expensive.I'm saving for it
Just for a few months. Gaming is my main cope and I like doing it brocel...Is it better to buy 1440p 240hz ips maybe ultra wide or save for 1440p OLED?
if only few month, then it's ok. The difference is clearly visible if you had IPS display in your smartphone and OLED one later.
And what is your experience with burn ins?
I never had one on any of smartphones with OLED. I guess on PC you will have to make sure you don't use max brightness and make Windows taskbar disappear so that you don't have UI elements constantly displayed in one place.
mine gets pretty bright once I enabled HDR
its not really an issue tho if you can position your pc so there isnt a lamp / window behind you
TN is even worse, i had TN and it makes most colors look even more desaturated and pale than IPS, veiwing angles are shit too. But yeah, OLED is clearly superior to all LCDs
OLED is unquestionably better for gaming. Near zero delay, clear images with less ghosting. It's noticeable as soon as you try one.
Worth it? Probably not, even with prices slowly dropping. OLED is still ~3x more expensive than comparative LCDs. I only have mine because I have nothing else to spend money on.
Burn-in worries are effectively over past the earliest OLEDs from like the 2010s. Unless you're really reckless running a static screen for many hours.

I appreciate your input
I will buy 1440p display, I feel like 4k is too much for 9070 XT.
I use a big tv but the issue is I forget to check my ammo counter since it's so big I have to move my eyes 10 feet to see things. I'd suggest a small monitor or tv and nothing large.
